			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img width="450" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="150" border="0" alt="" src="http://hackadaycom.files.wordpress.com/2008/05/desk-hacking.jpg?w=450&#038;h=150" /><br />Since it happens to be the day after a nice holiday break, many of us are finding ourselves back in front of our desk once again. Perhaps some of you never left it the entire weekend. In any case, it seems fitting to take a look at a few interesting integrated desks we&#8217;ve come across lately. Follow through after the break to see our favorites.</p>
<p><span id="more-1886"></span></p>
<p><img width="450" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="200" border="0" alt="" src="http://hackadaycom.files.wordpress.com/2008/05/desk-hacking1.jpg?w=450&#038;h=200" /><br />Cable management seems to be a constant struggle for many of us, do we have too many electronics? Probably, but how can one effectively manage the cable clutter? [Van Mardian] <a href="http://www.decluttered.com/">came up with a nice solution</a> that only required about $30 in parts from a local hardware store. Using a pegboard mounted under the desk itself he was able to hide most of his wires and even some peripherals. The comments have a lot of other examples.</p>
<p><img width="450" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="200" border="0" alt="" src="http://hackadaycom.files.wordpress.com/2008/05/desk-hacking2.jpg?w=450&#038;h=200" /><br />For those who live in a closet or perhaps a New York apartment, available space can sometimes be an issue. Thankfully a Romanian design company called MTI Impex has created <a href="http://mocoloco.com/archives/002155.php">the cube PC desk</a>. Unfortunately we couldn&#8217;t find additional information such as plans, but it doesn&#8217;t look like it would be too hard to construct.</p>
<p><img width="450" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="200" border="0" src="http://hackadaycom.files.wordpress.com/2008/05/desk-hacking4.jpg?w=450&#038;h=200" alt="" /><br />Similar to the previous example <a href="http://www.unplggd.com/unplggd/shelving-storage/the-tiny-office-trunk-station-ad-044132">this normal looking trunk</a> converts into a mini cubicle on wheels. From Japan, this melamine resin trunk comes complete with a fold out desk and several pre-drilled holes for cables. Ordering is available on the <a href="http://www.caina.jp/commodity_detail/70248084/">official site</a>, but will set you back $2000US.</p>
<p><img width="450" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="350" border="0" alt="" src="http://hackadaycom.files.wordpress.com/2008/05/desk-hacking3.jpg?w=450&#038;h=350" /><br />Lastly, we have the desk that inspired this post as it made its way around the net today. <a href="http://blog.modernmechanix.com/2008/05/27/for-fun-loving-executives/">This beauty</a> is like a mullet, all business up front with a party in the back. From a 1947 edition of Popular Mechanics this &#8220;dream desk&#8221; is just aces with all the features a modern executive needs. Yes, it has a 6 tube radio, dictating equipment, and even an electrical convenience outlet. More importantly, the backside (or play side) is equipped to turn any office into party central with its fridge and other spirit related fineries. Toss in a safe and we can only imagine this desk weighed more than its short lifespan was worth.</p>
